1. CONTINGENT FEES. In regard to the specific Services performed hereunder, the Parties agree to a contingency fee arrangement whereby the Law Firm will accept a fixed percentage of one-fourth (1/4) of the recovery amount should the case resolve successfully in the Client’s favor. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Law Firm shall first draw its fixed percentage from any recovery amount obtained; then the Client shall pay any costs still owned to the Law Firm in connection with the Services and then be disbursed the remaining funds. However, the Parties also acknowledge that should the case resolve unsuccessfully for the Client, neither the Client nor the Law Firm will be paid any funds. The Client shall, however, be responsible for payment of any costs connected with the Services (i.e., filing fees, costs related to depositions, etc.).

Typical costs include: filing fees, service of process, depositions, expert witness fees, travel expenses, long distance telephone calls, outgoing fax, Federal Express, courier services, delivery charges, photocopying (at GBP 2 per page), and online database retrieval charges (Lexis, Westlaw, etc.). The Law Firm may elect to cover certain out-of-pocket costs on behalf of the Client, but reserves the right to seek reimbursement.

If the Client’s advanced deposit(s) has been depleted, the Client is expected to remit payment within thirty (30) days of the date of the statement. If no attorney’s fees or costs are incurred for a particular month, or if they are minimal, the statement may be held and combined with that for the following month.
5. TERMINATION. Either Party may terminate the representation at any time, subject to the Law Firm’s obligations under the Rules of Professional Conduct and the approval of the court if the matter is in litigation. Unless previously terminated, the Law Firm’s representation will terminate upon sending the final billing invoice subject to the Law Firm’s obligations under the Rules of Professional Conduct, and the approval of the court if the matter is in litigation.
